| Here’s what the judges had to say:Absolutely brilliant!This humble product ticks so many boxes. Not only does it replace print collateral that would be required to support the event, but it has multiple uses and it can be used beyond the event.An excellent example of how a well thought out, branded merchandise item can reduce single use print collateral. Not only a useful item for attendees at the event, but also a piece of memorabilia that will be kept long after the event. A brilliant and creative product for the event. Well thought through, combining an ongoing practical product use for the length of the event and beyond. |
